Sweet, chocolate, caramel, bourbon, little bit boozy. Very well balanced. Delicious! Thanks Brandon S. for sharing a bottle of this one. Very enjoyable.

N: BCBS, chocolate, adjunct, all the nuts. P: BCBS, brbn, booze, adjunct, chocolate, all the nuts. F: brbn, booze, chocolate, char(s), van(s) LF: chocolate. Creamy chocolate throughout. Some nuts subtle. Adjunct is like a flavored syrup. I like this one.

Mark Herendeen: All the nut flavors were subtle and did not stand out. Chocolate was there but didn't overwhelm the BCBS backbone. It's not as much a pastry stout as other pastry stouts like Pulpit Rock's.

Not getting much for cherry. Just a hint maybe. Getting some chocolate. Boozy. Kinda disappointed. Very enjoyable BCBS but not worth the extra cost associated with a variant given the expectation of cherries... Which for the most part isn't there, IMO.
